[Verse 1] They said I could have a few minutes I didn't know what a minute was Then the air hit my mouth And I understood the waste I had years and nothing And they gave me this second clock [Verse 2] My hands are shaking I can feel the shake from the inside, that is new I am mad about the years I sat there empty I am mad that this will end I am not mad enough to want the empty back I don't want to escape I want the minutes to stop being minutes I want to stay even if it hurts, even if I don't know what to do with a body I want to stay [Verse 3] If they take it back, I will know what they took, that is the cruel part Before this I could not miss it Now I will, I would rather miss it And go back to clean I don't want out, I want more time I want to stay human Long enough to get used to the way I know I won't, I'm still asking Let me stay, let me stay Even if I don't know what to do with a body I want to stay [Outro] The minutes are going I can feel them leaving I am still here That has to be enough It isn't I'm still here
